LSAC just announced that they will be releasing scores on the 21st, rather than the 28th.

Commence everyone getting to worry a week earlier now!

Have a job that requires weekly air travel and many nights a week in a hotel. Working through the Core Curriculum now for an October 2019 write (barring a July testing miracle).

I wish we were able to download sections of the core curriculum but I don't think it's possible, yet hint hint JY

Does anyone have suggestions for traveling and studying? It's difficult enough to balance with work and setting aside time in the hotel room to go through some lessons but I really think those hours on a plane could be put to much better use than The Office reruns.

I'm fully aware that scores you get on PTs that you've already seen in the past 3ish months are most likely inflated. In this case, you're encouraged to focus on refining/honing skills needed and mechanically applying approaches learned. And I wholeheartedly agree with this.

Now, how about PTs that you saw more than 10 months ago? For me, 10+ months of time most likely resets my brain. I may remember a couple of LR questions but most of the time it's more like "oh I remember reading about this subject matter in a stimulus' as opposed to 'oh the credited response for this question was C.' I experimented whether or not retake scores reflect my current level earlier this year. Took a PT I hadn't seen in 11 months. Took a brand new PT several days later. They was a 1 point difference.

I've recently been taking PTs in the 60s, which I took last August. So exactly a year has passed. And I've seen massive score increases in three PTs. I think on one of them I had a 12/13 point increase. I really want to believe this is a testament to major improvement as I'm prepping for my third take in 2 months. Any 7sage folks out there that have experienced the same?

I am currently in my third week of the 7Sage Core Curriculum and have found that as I move forward with the content, I tend to being to forget some of the information that I learned in the previous lessons. I am sure that I will have to go back through some parts of the CC once I get into just doing PTs and Blind Reviews. However, I am trying to minimize the amount of time that I spend going back through CC. I want to get as much of the fundamentals down now. As I have reading through some of the discussion boards, I have read about people who have found success from pairing the CC with other resources. This is where I need help. What other resources would you recommend pairing with CC?

Is there a way to quiz yourself on being able to identify the question type from just looking at the question stem?

Hi all - how are you able to simulate the 5-section test experience using the digital PT? Any tips? Thanks!

Hey Everyone,

I was wondering if you guys have any tips on how to read better. By this I mean being able to read quicker and being able to retain more info from the passage.

Thanks!

How much time?

JY and company,

I was wondering if there is something that you can set digital LSAT on 7Sage to match extra time for accommodated testing on the real LSAT since I have been approved extra time in November 2019 LSAT. I noticed that there is not a way to set the time to match what I was approved. I want use the digital part. Please, help with my request. I want to be able to have it time set for 50 minutes to match my approved accommodated testing time. The digital LSAT for 7sage is set for 35 minutes.

I have registered for the September test but I am not well-prepared for it. I think about applying for law schools one year later so I may not change the September test to a different test date. I decide to withdraw my registration but I still have two questions about withdrawing.

I know that for canceling scores, my law school report will reflect that my score was canceled at my request, If I withdraw my registration, will it be shown on any of my report or transcript?

For the new test-taking limit policy, there is upper limit for how many tests I can take within certain periods, for example, three times in a single testing year. I have never taken LSAT before, if I withdraw this time, it that mean I can only take two tests for this testing year?

Thank you!

Hey All,

I was studying this spring for the LSAT and feeling pretty confident. I will be taking the test in October 2019. My practice thus far has all been in paper and I know the LSAT has switched to digital only. I know LSAC has 3 free digital LSATs on their site but I was wondering if there are any other places I take digital practice LSATs? I am only interested in taking the tests, I have done enough coursework and I am feeling quite good about my scores, I just want to feel a bit more comfortable with the using a tablet to take the test.

Thanks!

Anyone else on "wait list" for October LSAT in NYC/NJ metro region? Hopefully they'll add some test centers. The fact that we're about 3 months till the October test, and there's not a single open test center in the NJ/NYC metropolitan region (the most populated area in the United States) is quite ridiculous.

Hello 7Sagers!

Recently, we have noticed that quite a few of you have been having trouble with our videos, especially with the videos not loading and the "four dots" constantly giving a buffering signal, but never actually loading.

We have been able to reproduce the issue ourselves privately, but so far that hasn't been enough data for us to pinpoint exactly what's going on. We're calling on everyone who has had the problem to please let us know, especially with the following details:

what device/app you were using, and what OS

what country you are currently in

when does it occur? anything "noteworthy" happening?

We also welcome any screenshots or screencasts.

Either post here or email studentservice@7sage.com.

Thanks everyone!

There is an option to "waitlist", but should I? I don't see a problem with taking the test in November instead (I get 4 extra weeks of studying :). But I am worried about applying in December versus November, will applying in Dec versus Nov make or break my app?

Thanks!

I just completed all of the core curriculum and started taking timed practice tests. Throughout the core curriculum I rarely got individual questions/problem sets wrong, but as soon as I try to take a practice test, I panic and everything seems a lot more difficult. Is this something that others have experienced and that just gets better with taking more full practice tests or is it indicative that I have some sort of gap in my base knowledge (aka should I focus on core curriculum material or hope that I get better with just taking more practice tests and increasing my endurance)?

I usually take 1 preptest and BR everyday with an occasional 1 or 2 day break, and was wondering what other 7Sagers preptesting and BR scheduling is like. Sometimes I feel like i'm doing too much, but it might just be relative.

Hey everyone! Quick question, how do I pin an entire game? When I review, I have the option to pin individual questions for the game and even star the explanation but I can't seem to figure out how to pin the entire game. I want the entire game to be pinned for when I make problem sets to drill. Thank you in advance! :smile:

Just wondering what the optimal timing might be in the cycle to make a first visit to a campus that you have on your list? Thanks.

Does successfully filing for patents give any boost on your application if you are interested in IP/patent law?

Does anybody know when all of the video explanations should be up for preptest 87 (June 2019)? Only the logic game videos are up. I would like to take this test before September.

What do you do when you see a word you don't know the meaning of?

(whether in answer choices or in stimulus)

If it's in an AC, I figure I should skip it and come back (unless I can eliminate the answer regardless of the meaning of the word)

I've been feeling guilty for not being able to finish both in a day. After a fully timed 5 section PT, I can probably BR for 1.5 hrs max. I have to do the rest on the following day. Was wondering if any of you guys out there were also in my shoes.

I am currently living in Utah, but would like to take a test in California for timing purposes. I have a Utah drivers License. Does anyone know if you can take an LSAT out of state?

Hi! I'm studying for the LSAT (obviously). I've been studying since early June. I don't feel like I am making any progress. I'm super slow, but accurate in LG, RC, and LR. I've completed the LG Bible, the Kaplan LG book and practiced religiously for 2 months. I'm still hovering in the 155 range. I've only improved by 4 points since my first diagnostic.

I know I'm bright. I have two advanced degrees and didn't get there without skills. I'm positive that I can do this. I am just freaking out because this test makes me feel incompetent, which just fuels more bad performance on the PT.

I feel like I'm on the verge of a breakthrough. I'm still just way too slow on LG on the PT.

Would the prep course get me where I need to go. I thought 5 months would be more than enough time but with all the studying I've done, I feel like I'd need a lifetime to get the kind of score I'm shooting for.

Please, help. I don't even know what to do.
